OBJECTIVE
Build the citys greatest theme park, whatever it takes!
Over the course of 8 rounds, you will build attractions and upgrades
using Park cards, match your park to Blueprint cards, and play Event
cards to help yourself and hinder your opponents.
Your goal is to build the park that scores the most points at game
end, using three main ways to score: building impressively tall
attractions with lots of upgrades; completing Blueprints; and buying
your way to victory with good old-fashioned cash.
You might recruit staff members to help you, or build a super
attraction with a unique ability. Bribing officials and blackmailing
politicians is also possible, but entirely optional.

WHATS IN THE BOX SETUP

The game includes: Step 1: Each player can choose one theme pack to include, or you
can mix and draw Theme Randomiser tokens at random to choose
1 double-sided game board
which packs to play one pack per player. There is no core pack,
6 themed packs of cards Gangster, Jungle, and players dont keep one pack to themselves all cards are

Step 6: Separate the remaining cards by the design on their
backs. The red Park cards from all packs go into one shared
pile, green Event cards into another pile, and so on.
Step 7: Shuffle all piles well.
Step 11: Count out 4 white-and-blue Funfair City cards
face-down on top of the pile. Do NOT shuffle these together.
Put the remaining "Funfair" City cards back in the box
without revealing them. Match this 9-card pile to its place on
the board to form the City deck (D).

Step 12: Deal 5 Park cards to each player as their starting

hand. If a player receives no attraction cards (see page 4 for
how to recognise an attraction card), they may choose to
reveal their cards and discard them to draw a new hand of 5
Park cards, repeating until they have at least one attraction
card. Shuffle any discarded cards back into the Park deck at
the end of the process.

face-down on the table until used.
Step 14: Reveal cards from the Park deck to fill the 6 card
spaces marked in the centre of the board. This forms the
Market (E).
Step 15: The starting player is the person who most recently
rode a roller coaster.

Optional: If you wish to use Game Changers, select your

preferred card or cards now (see page 8 for details). The
Game Changer First Date is recommended if this is your first
game of Unfair.

Upgrades
Once you have an attraction in your park, you can build
upgrades onto it. Upgrades increase your parks appeal to
guests, earn you more points at game end, and are often
needed to match blueprints (see page 6).

LIMITATIONS: Some upgrades dont work with every type of
attraction. When there is a limitation, its shown on a black-
and-yellow strip beside the price tag.
DUPLICATED UPGRADES: You can build as many upgrades
with the same icon on a ride as you wish, as long as the exact
name is different. For example, having two check-mark icons
(for guest services) on the same attraction is fine, but having
two Air Conditioning upgrades is not.
Built-in upgrades
Some attractions have upgrades already built-in, which are
indicated by a second or third icon on the card.
On cards with built-in upgrades, the rule box shows exactly
which upgrade it is.

attractions are open or not doesnt matter.)

10 coins.

Blueprint cards
Blueprints provide goals that reward you for building
particular combinations of Park cards. How to get them is
explained in the Park Step section (see page 9).

To score a blueprint, the cards in your park must match the

blueprints requirements at the end of the game (not during).
Any unmatched blueprints score -10 points at game end.

If you complete the "Complete All Items" section, you can then
also complete and score the "Bonus Target" section. There is
no penalty for incomplete Bonus Target sections.

You must have at least the items that the blueprint requires,

Players take three actions each round, one at a time in turn
with the other players. Some cards permit a fourth action.
When its your turn for an action, you have three main choices:
Take, Build, or Demolish. You can also pick up Loose Change.
You may choose the same action more than once.
A. Take
Use a Take action to gain a card by doing one of the following:
Put a card from the Market into your hand for later,
then refill the Market. There is no coin cost for taking a
card you pay when you build.
Draw two cards from either the Park deck, the Events
deck, or the Blueprints deck, and then choose one card
to keep and one to discard. You can discard both if
neither is of any use to you.
Discard any card from your hand to draw five cards
from the Park deck. Choose one to keep, then discard
the rest.

You can only draw blueprints as an action during the first
four ("Funfair") rounds. From Round 5 to the end of the game,
blueprints are only available using events and abilities.

theres no need to wait for them to decide which one to keep.

point, so play can continue
EVENT straightEVENT

B. Build
Draw City Play
Use a Build action to place a Park card into your park, with
these limitations set by your Main Gate:
Your park can only have 1 super attraction.
Your park can have 5 attractions in total, including a
super attraction.
You cannot repeat upgrades with the same name on
the same attraction. This includes upgrades that are
built-in. You can have the same upgrade on different
attractions though.
You can build a card from your hand, or directly from the
Market. Always refill the Market immediately after a card
is removed. For all practical purposes, the Market never
has a blank space.
Pay the build price marked on the cards price tag, and place it
into your park, face-up in front of you on the table.
If the card you build is an attraction, it goes into the first
available spot in your parks five attraction spaces. If its an
upgrade, it goes onto an attraction by sliding it behind the
existing attraction card. If its a staff member or a resource, it
goes to the left of your Main Gate.
SUPER ATTRACTIONS: You can choose to build a super
attraction from your Showcase cards if your park doesnt
already have one. Your park must have a total of at least 5
stars CLEANUP
before you can build a super attraction.
CLOSED ATTRACTIONS: You may build upgrades on a closed
attraction if you wish.
LOANS: If you need extra money to pay for building, you can
take a loan (see page 8).
C. Demolish
Use a Demolish action to
remove something from your
park, perhaps to make way for
a different attraction.
You can only demolish a single
Park card with a Demolish
action, but if you demolish an
attraction, all of its upgrades are
then demolished along with it.
Cards you demolish in this way go
into the Park discard pile, not into your hand.
BUILT-IN UPGRADES: If a built-in upgrade would be
demolished, the attraction it's part of closes instead. The
upgrade is automatically repaired by the time it opens again.
D. Loose Change
Use a Loose Change action to gain 1 coin for each attraction in
your park, whether open or not, by picking up the lost coins
that fall out of your guests' pockets.

Main Gate, along with any extra Event cards

DO NOT count stars on closed attractions or their
upgrades.
The total number of stars represents how many guests want
to visit your park.
LIMIT TO GUEST CAPACITY: Your park has the
capacity to hold a maximum of 15 guests. You
can build more than 15 stars in your park, but it
cannot hold more guests than its capacity, so you
can only sell tickets to a maximum of 15 guests.
Staff members, resources, and other cards can increase your
guest capacity.

effect during the Guests step, as a reminder.

cards, shuffle the matching discard pile and replace it as the

middle of an event or action.

THE GOLDEN RULES
+1
#1: Cards can change the rules.
+1 If a rule on a card contradicts a rule written in this rulebook,
the card wins.
+2 A rule on a card that says you cannot do something beats a
rule on a card that says you can do something.

+2 For example, if you have an Event card that says you can
demolish something, and a Park card that says you cannot
demolish it, the cannot rule wins.
=8
#2: Whats done is done.
You must carry out all required game actions. For example,
collecting your income is not an optional step, so if you forget
to take your money in the Guests step you must fix that
oversight.

However, if a card says you may do something and you dont

do it, theres no rewinding to change it.

 GLOSSARY
Action Each round, in the Park step, players get three
actions in total to draw cards, build or demolish something in
their park, or to look for loose change. Actions are taken one
at a time, in turn with other players. Events or abilities may
sometimes allow a player to take a fourth action.
Added When a card is built or moved so that it is in a
location where it was not previously, then it has been added.
See also: Build, Move.
Adjacent An attraction card is adjacent to another if it is
placed immediately beside it, on either side. For example, the
first attraction you build must be adjacent to your Main Gate.
Staff members and resources dont have a fixed location, and
are not considered adjacent to anything.
Affected An event affects you if the rules of that event would
make a measurable change to anything you own or control,
and the event is not blocked. You probably want to know if
you can use Instant Karma on someone who just tried to hit
you, and the answer is only if they actually succeeded.
Attraction A Park card that has the word Attraction as
part of its card type. A card with Super Attraction Thrill Ride
is still an attraction; its just not a basic attraction. Sometimes
"attraction" is used to refer to the combination of an attraction
card and all of its upgrade cards.
Attraction size See: Icon size.
Attraction space A space in which an attraction can be
built. Each park starts with 5 unused attraction spaces.
Attraction type If you are allowed to choose an attraction
type, you can choose anything that occurs in the card type
text on an attraction card, other than Attraction itself. Super,
Theatre, Sideshow, Thrill Ride, Leisure Ride, Food Outlet, even
just Ride by itself, all are acceptable choices.
Available This has the same meaning as "open", but is used
to refer to staff members only. A staff member is available
when they are face-up in the park.
Available coins The money that a player has ready to
spend. Their available coin total doesnt include any money
that is attached to other cards, nor does it include money they
could get by taking a loan.
Block To prevent an event from affecting you. When an
event is blocked, it is not cancelled. Any effects it has on other
players still happen.
Build Placing a Park or Showcase card into your park that
wasnt in play previously. The new card can come from the
Market, your hand, your Showcase cards, or another source
if a card allows it. Usually building means paying the build
price marked on the card's price tag, but in some cases its
discounted or free. See also: Recruit.
Build price The build price of a Park card is the price
marked on the card in the blue price tag, adjusted by any
event cards or City event effects that change the price. If
you are instructed to pay to build or pay the current build
price, it refers to the price you would pay if you were building
the card as an Action in the Park step.
Bury To place a card face-down under another card in your
park. Once buried, the card is no longer active and has no
special abilities. It is not turned face-up in the Cleanup step.
Capacity See: Guest capacity.
City event Each round a City card is revealed and played.
These are events that are initiated by the City, not by any
player. Any cards that talk about events, particularly blocking
those events, work equally well on City events as on regular
events.
Close When an attraction is closed, guests cant use it.
None of its stars are counted, including those on all of its
upgrades. The main attraction card is turned face down when
an attraction is closed, and any abilities on that card are not
available. Abilities on the upgrades remain available, however.
Coins The standard currency. Yes, when it says gain 1
coin, a 25 coin is technically one coin, but you know what
it means, and so do the people youre playing with. [stern
look] Yes, they could have been called dollars or bucks, but
theyre not.
Competitor A player who is competing with you;
specifically, any player except you.
Deck A pile of cards, face-down, of one particular type such
as Park, Event, Blueprint, or City.
Demolish To remove a card from your park and from play.
When a card is demolished it usually goes to the discard pile.
However, some attraction cards have built-in upgrades; if a
built-in upgrade is demolished, the attraction closes instead
of discarding the card. See also: Dismiss.
Discard To place a card into its matching discard pile from
wherever it currently is. Demolishing something usually leads
to discarding it, but demolish and discard are not the same
thing.
Discard pile Cards that have been used and are no longer
in play are added face-up to the discard pile for that card
type. Cards in any discard pile are public knowledge and can
be searched by any player at any time. Once a deck has been
emptied, its discard pile is shuffled up and turned face-down
to become the new deck.
Dismiss This has the same meaning as Demolish but is
used to refer to staff members only. Demolishing people just
sounds wrong.
Draw Take one or more cards from the top of the specified
deck. Whether the cards become part of your hand depends
on the type of card. Park and Event cards can go into your
hand, but Blueprint and Showcase cards are placed face-
down on the table in front of you.
Employer This has the same meaning as Owner, but is used
to refer to staff members only.
Exhume To remove a buried card from under a card in your
park.
Funfair round A round in which the current City card is a
white-and-blue Funfair City card.
13
 Gain Take coins or other currency out of the central pool of
money.
Guest Theres one born every minute. Each guest pays a
ticket price to enter your park. Sometimes you can also earn
extra income from your guests.
Guest capacity The maximum number of guests your park
can hold. This is not the same as your maximum income
there is no maximum on your income.
Hand The collection of cards you hold in secret that are not
active in your park. The usual hand limit is 5, enforced during
the Cleanup step at the end of each round. Blueprint and
Showcase cards cannot be part of your hand. Ever.
Icon size An attractions icon size is how many icons it
contains, including the attraction card itself and all of its
upgrades. The total includes built-in upgrades count every
icon on the attraction's ribbon.
Immediately As part of the same turn or action.
Injunction event A bureaucratic attack; the City Planning
Office altering the city building codes and using the legal
system to suit themselves. It can be blocked by having
Powerful Friends.
Inspection event A regulatory attack; the city enforcing the
existing city codes. It can be blocked by having an appropriate
Safety Certificate.
Intrusion event A physical attack; terrible people breaking
into your park and then breaking things in your park, which
can be blocked if you have Security Guards.
Keep When you keep a card, Park cards and Event cards go
into your hand, while Blueprint cards are placed face-down
in front of you. Cards are not part of your hand until you keep
them.
Largest attraction Refers to having the largest icon size,
not any other measure.
Lose Put coins or other currency into the central pool of
money.
Marked coin price When the price to build a Park card is
shown on its price tag in coins, the card has a marked coin
price. If the price is marked in some other currency, then
you must pay in that currency to build the card. However, its
marked coin price is 0 for the purposes of calculating its value
in coins. Discounts that affect the marked coin price do not
affect prices in other currencies. See also: Build price.
Market The six card spaces on the board where Park cards
are displayed face-up. Cards revealed here can be built as if
they were in your hand, or taken into your hand for later. The
Market is always refilled as soon as a card is removed.
Move A card moves when its already in play and changes
location from one attraction to another or from one park
to another. The card does not go out of play when it moves,
and it is not built or demolished, recruited or dismissed. Any
special abilities that have already been used before the card is
moved do not reactivate after moving. Any coins or tokens on
the card move with it.
14
Open When an attraction is open, guests can use it. All of
its special abilities are available, and its stars can be counted
as part of your parks star total, along with those on all of its
upgrades.
Owner The player in whose park the card is located, or who
played an event, is its owner. See also: Employer.
Park Your park consists of the park entrance card (usually
your Main Gate) plus the Park cards in play that you own,
such as attractions, upgrades, staff members, and resources.
Play Playing a card means making the card active, usually
using up your turn to do so.
Price See: Build price.
Random When asked to choose at random, shuffle the
options and take the top one. Watching your opponent's face
while you hover your hand over each card is not random.
Recruit This has the same meaning as build, but is used to
refer to staff members only.
Redundant This glossary entry.
Reopen To make an attraction open again. The main
attraction card is turned face-up when an attraction is
reopened.
Reveal To show the face of a card to all players.
Resource A Park card that has the word Resource in its
card type. Resources are placed to the left of your Main Gate
and benefit the entire park.
Spend This has the same meaning as lose. Make of that what
you will.
Staff member A Park card that has the words Staff
Member in its card type. Staff members are placed to the left
of your Main Gate and benefit the whole park. They are not
attached to any attraction. They can be recruited into your
park or dismissed from it.
Star total Your parks star total is the total of the numbers
on all gold stars in your park, excluding any closed attractions
and their upgrades, and face-down cards such as unavailable
staff members.
Stars These represent how attractive a Park card is to
potential guests. Park cards have their star value marked with
a gold star symbol.
Steal Take coins or other currency from another player.
Suitable attraction When you build or move upgrades, they
must end up attached to a suitable attraction, meaning that all
rules of the attraction and the upgrade must be followed. For
example, a Picnic Area is not a suitable attraction to have any
upgrade because a Picnic Area says on the card that it cannot
be upgraded. Likewise, any thrill ride would not be a suitable
attraction for Air Conditioning, because Air Conditioning
says that it cannot be built on a ride.
Turn Order Players take turns in a clockwise sequence
beginning with the starting player. Yes, its clockwise as
viewed from above the table. No, these rules are not from a
mirror universe.
Unavailable This has the same meaning as closed, but is
used to refer only to staff members. It just sounds nicer.
Unfair round A round in which the current City card is a
white-and-red Unfair City card.
Upgrade A Park card that has the word Upgrade in its card
type. Upgrades can only be built onto attractions in your park
and must follow the suitable attraction rules; they cannot be
built by themselves.
